Specialist note

Henry Ford II's remarkable collection of French furniture was largely formed with the advice of Rosenberg and Steibel, New York. A large proportion of the French furniture and works of art they sold to Ford came directly from the Viennese Rothschilds, as well as Baronne Renée de Becker (née Rothschild).
